THE BALL | Saturday Evening

[defenderofdesmoines]

Don't even ask how or why the school auditorium had been transformed into a fairly stylized interpretation of a nineteenth century ballroom. Where had that sweeping staircase come from? Why was everything suddenly pink marble? How were there suddenly NPC footmen everywhere?

Seriously. Don't ask.

In any case, there was a ball, at the castle, where all would be invited to come from near and far to dance with one another in amazing displays of color and mid-century animation techniques.

Maybe there would even be a prince! (Honestly, there would probably be at least three or four princes.) It was sure to be a night of romance - although, not too much romance, since this was all still firmly G-rated.

"Oh no, we're in the same dress!" Tahani cried.

They weren't. They were just both in yellow. But drama had been made on thinner coincidences! Probably!

"Did yours come from an enchanted wardrobe??" If Belle's furniture was providing couture of its own volition perhaps others were as well.

"Oh, no, we don't. You have a magnificent train on yours!"

"Mine was from the fairy godmother in the park," Tahani said. "An enchanted wardrobe sounds very fancy."

"You have a fairy godmother?" Jealousy was unbecoming and unladylike, of course. But perhaps Belle might be allowed a tiny bit of envy. Just this once.

"Doesn't everyone?" Tahani asked.

"I've always thought they were terribly rare! I've never met a fairy. I would like to. What is she like?" Belle's eyes were shining as she asked the question.

Be careful what you wish for there, Belle, there were some fairies in your canon future.

Weirdly sixteenish? "Oh, she was very beautiful, extremely helpful and has, as you can see, exquisite taste."

"You're very lucky," Belle said. "It is a beautiful gown. And being from a fairy godmother makes it even moreso!"

"Thank you," Tahani said, curtseying. "Yours is lovely as well."

She was even mostly sincere!
